    Thank you. The clean background has been the result of shooting at 510mm (300 X 1.7X) at 4.6 feet. I used a car as a hide and managed to have a whale of a time with two of these! It was photographed near the Kausalyaganga wetlands.

    Lovely composition. I love the straws in focus along with the bird. The bird is nice and sharp.. Good shot. These birds are very frisky and tough to get at one place...
    Thanks buddy. But this is definitely a pipit, can't be a possibly be a warbler I think. Talking about sharp, if you notice, there is a sharpness artifact under the tip of the beak, the result of being lazy and PPing a jpeg copy

    Would love to know the EXIF for it. I think you have mentioned about the equipment used...
    Yeah, sorry, I got disconnected while uploading the image, so half the info was there and half was missing. Have added the EXIF stuff. Cropping the brick out will leave very little gap behind the bird, I think.

    Cheers!
